Student Assistant (m/f/d): „Membrane Polymer Synthesis“

Development of novel technologies such as fuel cells, electrolyzers and redox-flow batteries is a very active field of research nowadays due to the need for implementation of renewable energy technologies to decarbonize the society. The development of new ion-conducting polymer materials for use as membranes in the above-mentioned electrochemical processes is a constant challenge. The aim here is to develop a cost-effective, efficient, and sustainable material. For this purpose, monomer and polymer syntheses are carried out and the resulting compounds are characterized regarding conductivity, stability, mechanical properties, etc.

We offer

  • An excellent, international and interdisciplinary working environment with leading experts in the fields of research.
  • Flexibility to adapt the activities to the interests and qualifications of the applicants.
  • An attractive salary for at least 10-19 hours per week.
  • Flexible working hours, as well as compatibility with intensive phases of study.
  • An employment contract limited to 6 months with the possibility of extension.

We are looking for

Motivated students with excellent grades in the fields of chemistry, chemical engineering, or material science, who like to work in international teams.

Additionally, besides good scientific basics, appropriate English skills are required. Extended knowledge in organic chemistry and polymer chemistry is required for this thesis, and basic knowledge in electrochemistry is preferable, but not essential.
